I thought that too but they would have to smash it and roll it while smashing it. Idk how they would do that usually when you see like a reed ing hit it is only about three or 4 reeds this one is16 ? That's why I question it and where it's at and uniformity it looks machine done like it had trouble ejecting from reed ing machine and got pinched somehow? Or am I thinking to much

So what else would cause those features at the precise spacing of collar reeds? Collar clash on a 1921-D VAM-1J (I've had 4 of them under my camera, including the Condition Census coin):

Yes Dave whatever coin that is in the last picture is about how minor mine is . Idk on a scale of 1 to 10 how major of a collar clash it is but I'm guessing along the lines of a 2 lol.

When you think about it, the nature of a collar clash means it won't cover too many degrees of circumference before intruding onto the fields of the die. That event usually has a poor outcome for both collar and die. So yours isn't "insignificant" as collar clashes go.
How often do we see collar clashes in this forum? Last Quarter I could find was almost a year ago.
